TEST 7 – Saving the British Bitterns 
A. 
Breeding bitterns became extinct in the UK by 1886 but, following recolonization early last 
century, numbers rose to a peak of about 70 booming (singing) males in the 1950s, falling to fewer than 20 
by the 1990s. In the late 1980s it was clear that the bittern was in trouble, but there was little information on 
which to base recovery actions. 
B. 
Bitterns have cryptic plumage and a shy nature, usually remaining hidden within the cover of reed 
bed vegetation. Our first challenge was to develop standard methods to monitor their numbers. The boom of 
the male bittern is its most distinctive feature during the breeding season, and we developed a method to 
count them using the sound patterns unique to each individual. This not only allows us to be much more 
certain of the number of booming males in the UK, but also enables us to estimate local survival of males 
from one year to the next
